(more information online at http://kraken-lang.org/ which is also under construction / needs to be updated / has a try-it-online feature for an older version without partial evaluation)
Heavily inspiried by John Shutt's thesis: https://web.wpi.edu/Pubs/ETD/Available/etd-090110-124904/unrestricted/jshutt.pdf with partial evaluation during compilation to make it efficient.

Working up to a JIT for fexprs by starting with
